Detailed explanation-2: -Validity should be considered in the very earliest stages of your research, when you decide how you will collect your data. Ensure that your method and measurement technique are high quality and targeted to measure exactly what you want to know. They should be thoroughly researched and based on existing knowledge.

This concept of validity applies to all types of clinical studies, including those about prevalence, associations, interventions, and diagnosis.
